As a highly praised MMO, LOTRO allows players of all levels to explore incredibly detailed realms and join familiar characters in an evolving and persistent re-creation of the epic landscape of Middle-earth.

Gamers can adventure solo or forge their own fellowships online with others, as they face hideous monsters and minions of Sauron, establish unique reputations, fight epic battles to defend Middle-earth, and immerse themselves in the greatest adventure the fantasy genre has ever known.Sauce: Press release
